The year in perspective

was another very successful year for PerfectTablePlan. During the year
we:
We would like to
say a big thank you to our customers for making it
all
possible. Many of the ideas for new features have come from customer
feedback and your
many kind comments have helped to keep us going through late
night debugging sessions. We hope we saved you a lot of fiddling with
scraps of paper or Excel.
We are planning on adding
lots of great new features to PerfectTablePlan v4 in 2008. new versions
of the software will be announced in this
newsletter.
Applications
that work with PerfectTablePlan
Our
philosophy for
PerfectTablePlan is to do one thing (table plans) really well, rather
than try to spread ourselves too thin. But, due to extensive
import
and export capabilities, PerfectTablePlan can easily
integrate with
many other applications. Here are a couple of
other applications
that might compliment your use of
PerfectTablePlan.
Linked Software Membership Management
System
Linked
Software's membership software is a reasonably priced and very flexible
membership management solution for clubs, associations and non-profit
organizations. Any number of events can scheduled and
exported to
PerfectTablePlan for seating arrangements and all the other benefits it
provides.
You can download a free trial version of the Linked Software
Management Suite at www.linkedsoftware.com
to try all the features, including exporting to PerfectTablePlan.
LodgeDat
Those
with
a Masonic connection might be interested in LodgeDat (www.lodgedat.co.uk).
Designed to ease the work of Officers in Masonic orders,
LodgeDat is a database system which interfaces with
Microsoft Office. It provides the means to store and
manage information about members and visitors and their connections
with unlimited lodges, chapters, etc, it also handles meetings
and seating. Regular seating positions can be saved to be used over
again, simplifying the process of assigning seats.
LodgeDat
integrates with PerfectTablePlan by simplifying the export process,
producing a text file in CSV format. Fields are exported from
LodgeDat in the same order as the dropdown menus in
PerfectTablePlan to ease their selection during the import
process. Once imported the strength and flexibility of
PerfectTablePlan can be brought to bear to fine tune your
table plans - or completely change them!
Word of mouth
A happy
customer is the best form of advertising, so
we really appreciate it when customers recommend PerfectTablePlan to
friends and associates and through newsletters, forums and blogs. If
you
like the new version, please tell others. If you don't like the new
version, please tell us!
